When the Empress Dowager learned about Prince Yu, Ruyi went to Qixiang Palace again. Recalling that when the Empress was pregnant, Ruyi also went there with the intention of destroying her heart.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. If the Queen hadn't had someone protecting her in the Qianqing Palace, and if Concubine Jia hadn't had a good attitude, several of the royal heirs would probably have been harmed.

Ruyi specifically chooses to kill pregnant women when she is pregnant. This is simply heartless and detrimental to her virtue.

The Empress Dowager sent Fujia to force Ruyi to kneel in Baohua Palace every day and pray for the royal heir in Concubine Jia's belly until Concubine Jia gave birth safely.

Ruyi felt aggrieved. Regarding the princess's marriage, she just wanted to share the emperor's worries, teach the princess about the righteousness of the world, and share the empress dowager's worries so that they would not be separated from each other.

As for Jin Yuyan, she and Prince Yu's love is not just a casual one, she just wants to fulfill the love between Jin Yuyan and Prince Yu.

Unexpectedly, Jin Yuyan actually had the heart to watch her childhood sweetheart fall to this state. In Ruyi's heart, Jin Yuyan and Wei Yanwan were placed on the same level:

Both of them are people who are greedy for power and forget about love and loyalty.

The Queen Mother specifically asked Fujia to remove the cushions in the Baohua Palace. On the second day after Ruyi knelt for a long time, her knees were in so much pain that she could not bear it. She resented the Queen Mother in her heart.

The Queen Mother actually asked her to pray for the baby in Concubine Jia's belly. After all, she was the concubine mother of Concubine Jia's child.

It doesn't make sense to ask a stepmother to kneel down and pray for her stepson.

Seeing the reluctance on Ruyi's face, Fujia said seriously:

"My Lady Xian, you'd better pray for a safe birth for Concubine Jia and good health for both mother and child. Otherwise, the Queen Mother has ordered that if anything happens to Concubine Jia and her child, you will be demoted to a concubine and imprisoned in the Yikun Palace."

Only at this moment did Ruyi truly pray that Jin Yuyan would give birth to a prince safely. No matter what, she could not be demoted any further.

She could only hope that Concubine Jia would give birth quickly so that she could return to Yikun Palace earlier. By then, she would definitely soak her feet in flower petals to relieve her fatigue.

On the ninth day of Ruyi's kneeling punishment, Jin Yuyan gave birth to two princes safely.

Fu Cha Langya and Gao Xiyue stayed at the door of the delivery room on the day Jin Yuyan gave birth. This was their first time to witness the birth of twins.

From noon of the previous day to noon of the next day, Yuyan's cries of pain in the delivery room made them sweat. Fu Cha Langya, who had experienced the pain of childbirth, felt even more distressed for Yuyan.

This made her even more angry at Ruyi's ill intentions towards pregnant women and mothers who had just given birth.

It was September 18th, and the Imperial Astronomical Observatory observed the astronomical phenomenon of "the sun and the moon in conjunction, and the five planets in a line", and the table stated that today was an auspicious day.

The emperor was overjoyed to hear that the Qing Dynasty would be peaceful and prosperous in the coming year, and he personally named the two princes Yongxuan and Yongji.

In Qixiang Palace, Chen Wanyin was busy going in and out. She felt unprecedented happiness. She was the eldest sister in the family, and the happiest thing since childhood was to be needed by her younger siblings.

Later, they entered the prince's mansion. The house was lonely and the sisters just lived their own lives behind closed doors. This was even more so after they entered the palace.

Now she is busy taking care of Concubine Jia and two newborn princes, and she has regained the feeling of being needed when she was young.

Shortly after Jin Yuyan finished her confinement, the emperor and Khorchin agreed on the wedding date for Princess Gulun Hejing and Sebuteng Balzhuer, which was set for March 16 of the following year.

The emperor specially ordered the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Household Department to teach Sebuteng Balzhuer together so that the relationship between the princess and her husband could be smooth and harmonious.

As the divorce date drew closer, the emperor felt more and more reluctant to part with his eldest daughter, so he issued a summons that allowed the princess to return to the palace for a short stay at any time after her marriage.

While Sebu was learning the rules in a hurry, Jingse had a rare moment of leisure time. She began to pay her respects to the concubines in each palace.

By the way, accept the wedding gifts.

The Queen Mother felt guilty towards Jingse and the Queen, so she gave Jingse one of her farms outside the capital. Jingse was amazed by the generosity of the gift. She declined it again and again, but finally she couldn't resist the Queen Mother and accepted it.

Empress Hui gave her a white jade statue of Guanyin, wishing her many children and a peaceful life.

Empress Chun gave her a pair of jade bracelets given by the late emperor when she entered the palace. These were Empress Chun's most treasured things. Jingse was moved and gave her set of four treasures of the study to Yongrong.

Empress Jia gave her a box of wild ginseng, which was more than the stock in the imperial pharmacy. Empress Jia told her not to be reluctant to eat it, because she had more left after she finished it.

Empress Yu personally embroidered a picture of the Three Immortals of Fortune, Longevity and Happiness for her with gold thread, wishing her a life of both fortune and luck, and a long life of a hundred years.

Empress Wan had taken care of her since she was in the Qiandi Palace. She personally painted her appearance from the age of three to fifteen, framed it carefully and gave it to her. This was her most treasured gift.

Empress Ling was extremely thoughtful. She and the Empress Dowager had a master-servant relationship and she had taught her before, so she prepared a set of housekeeping rules for her. The rules were so detailed that even Fu Cha Lang Ya praised them. In addition, Yan Wan also gave her 18 bottles of Western perfume from her collection.

Jingse returned with a lot of things. Ruyi heard the news that Princess Hejing went to various palaces to pay farewell in Yikun Palace, so she prepared gifts early and waited in the palace for Jingse to come and pay her respects.

But Princess Hejing had even gone to the least favored Concubine Wan, so how could she not come to me?

Ruyi couldn't help but feel a little chilled. The princess was the kind of person who flattered the powerful and looked down on the weak.

Rong Pei looked at her coldly. Her master had no recollection of what she had said to Princess Hejing. This was normal. In the eyes of her master, all the harm she had done was warmth and righteousness.

Rong Pei touched her lower abdomen, and the pain came again. That day, the master gave her too much arsenic in the cold palace. Seeing how much pain she was in, he reduced the dosage by half.

Rong Pei sneered. If Princess He Jing was like this in her eyes, the lives of her servants must be even more humble and worthless.

Ruyi waited until it was almost dark, but Princess Hejing still didn't show up. How could she not use the exquisite gifts she had prepared? Ruyi could only ask Rong Pei to send them to Changchun Palace to express her gratitude.

As she took out the gift, she said to Rong Pei:

"After all, this princess is not very important to the Queen. She is just the icing on the cake after having a prince. It is just used to kill time. Please send my thoughts to her."

Changchun Palace.

Jingse was dining with the emperor and the queen, enjoying a rare family moment. When the emperor heard that the concubines had given Jingse so many things, he felt a little proud.

Why are my concubines so good to Jingse? Because they love me, and they love Jingse as well. That's why they are so nice to her.

Afterwards, the emperor sent rewards to each palace.

Halfway through the meal, Rong Pei arrived late with some extra makeup for Concubine Xian.

Even though Fucha Langya had prepared herself mentally, she couldn't help but twitch her lips when she saw the pair of turquoise and ruby-inlaid armor sent by Ruyi.

This armor isn't even gold.

This armor isn't even a set.

Rong Pei didn't expect that the emperor was here. Even if she was not wholeheartedly devoted to Ruyi, she could not let herself be punished.

She thought for a moment, knelt down and said:

"Lady Xian said, I wish the princess and her husband will be like this armor, a couple, a happy marriage, and a happy family..."

The emperor could no longer bear to see Ruyi's newly built confidence destroyed again, so he comforted himself and Ruyi:

"Hahahahaha, Concubine Xian is really humorous. Tell your master that the Queen and I have received her kindness. I will go to see her later."

Jingse looked at Langya, and Langya looked at the emperor. The emperor picked up a piece of duck meat and put it on Jingse's plate.

"Eat, eat, look at what I'm doing!"
